I thought the new race director changes was to improve transparency. It’s a farce, fucking shitshow, especially after the events of last year.
Why don’t they just wait until they know it’s going to be nice for a week…
They should replace it with the Runcorn GP. Everything going for it including more room for the super yachts.
We’re between the tunnel and the chicane… the ruddy speed and then the braking. Outrageous.
Nice job from Perez.
If any driver could only win one GP I bet most of them would want it to be Monaco.
Could be the last Monaco. Whilst it is iconic and has a unique vibe I walked the track a few years ago and it is too narrow for good racing as is confirmed by the lack of overtaking - this year behind Fernando.
If the race is replaced it needs to be with a good track like Spa not like the Hungaroring. But money …
Pleased for Checo.
The noise and the smell?
So you did take the bucket…
Go-on, rub it in, you jammy cunt!!!
F1’s ultimate cliche - Every. Fucking. Year. - is Monaco’s last…
And what did we have this year? Well, if you watched the condensed C4 version without the wasted hours of race non-direction - a thoroughly entertaining race at the ultimate classic venue - apart from Ferrari gifting it to RB…
Yeah, apart from that.
Glad it was Chico tho’.
God I hate you right now!
…and to add insult to injury, we only had that berth due to Christian Horner putting a word in, as he was on this yacht last week.
One thing you don’t see, or hear on the telly is at the end of the race every boat honks their horn.
For fucking ages. Ears are still ringing now.
The jammiest of fucking days, but one I’ll never forget.
Lovely - chuffed for you.
ALL the envy.
ALL of it.
Ferrari:
“… we believe that both Red Bulls were on the line, the yellow line exit in the pit lane, and in the past it has always been penalised with a five-second penalty. More than that, if you read the race director notes, it’s clearly written that, since Turkey 2020… that you need to stay on the right of the yellow line.”
Red Bull:
“He didn’t go over the line, he was always in contact with the line.”
So Red Bull admit their car was in contact with the line.
And there is precedent for a penalty to apply in that situation.
It must boil Ferrari’s piss that they don’t get the benefit of every decision since Berni went
Bring back Michael Massi. Just sayin’
Ferrari are certainly pining for Bernie…
Because they want to shoot someone?
This is nothing new tbh.
My first race there was 1977 when it was much, much more cramped than now and we had a remote paddock so the cars had to be towed to the (open) pits through crowds of get-in-the-ways.
If it rained you and all the kit got drenched. No computers then of course and the electrics was a battery, wire and switch to the ignition and another for the rear light
Monaco is Monaco and was just something to be put up with each year as part of F1.
If they drop Monaco I won’t be surprised because Liberty is an American company but it will be RIP to the F1 as I have enjoyed it for the last 60 years if they do
